Five Things #178

Every Tuesday I share five things I've liked and think you might like too. Here are this week’s Five Things…

  1. I've finally finished reading Range by David Epstein (the “finally” being no fault of the author). The book explores the benefits of being a generalist and dangers of hyper-specialisation through the lens of musicians, athletes, scientists and business people. Well worth a read. — Range: How Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World

  2. This post by Austin Kleon has really stuck with me. My mission for 2020... to have fun! — Who’s having fun?

  3. Something to think about at the start of a new year/ decade — Time is personal. Your year changes when your life changes.

  4. Another excellent list from Tom Whitwell. He writes one every year and they are always packed with interesting facts — 52 things I learned in 2019

  5. This is a vision of the future that I find very exciting. Cities designed for humans and not cars! — What happened when Oslo decided to make its downtown basically car-free?
